Ganem Jewelers

Ganem Jewelers was founded in 1982 by George Ganem, a certified Graduate Gemologist. An jeweler with deep heritage in the East Valley, its first jewelry store was located in Tempe, with 2, 000 square feet of high-quality jewelry and timepieces. A second jewelry store, comprising 8, 000 square feet with a full-service repair and design shop, opened in Ahwatukee in November 1998. In 2004, as George began focusing on other projects, he handed the company reigns to sons Jason and Curtis, who were named co-presidents. For the past four years, the sons have managed day-to-day operations, with Curtis overseeing the Ahwatukee jewelry store and Jason focusing on business development and new locations. As the company has grown, so has demand for Ganem's trademark customer service in areas other than the East Valley. A new store serving the northeast Phoenix and Scottsdale communities opened in September 2008 at The Shops at Chauncey Ranch, where Jason Ganem is now based. This jewelry store marks the end of an era and the beginning of another: The store at Chauncey Ranch, showcasing 4, 000 square feet of sparkling gems, replaced the original Tempe location. With two Arizona jewelry store locations featuring customized diamond and gemstone jewelry and timepieces, including luxury brands like Cartier, Breitling, Tag Heuer, Honora, Bixby and more, Ganem Jewelers has grown into one of the premier jewelry destinations in Arizona.
